Play a sound when a scheduled macro runs

Enter the file name and path of the sound file into the edit field. Or click on the Browse button to locate the sound file. Click on the test button to hear the sound selected.  

Wait for the sound file to finish

Select this option to cause playback of the macro to stop until the sound file has finished playing. The macro resumes playback once the .wav file has finished.

 


 
Timer Interval
This option determines the interval, in seconds, for how often Keyboard Express will check to see if a timed macro is ready to execute. The setting may be from 1 to every 59 seconds. If no timed macros exist or none are active, then Keyboard Express will shut off the timer. The default setting is to check for timed macros every 10 seconds.
